How We Do Anything Means Everything \u2013Dov Seidman<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As leaders, we need to understand the culture of our business, be aware of the pulse of our team, co-workers, and business partners, consistently communicate goals and strategies, and make decisions based on our knowledge of the above.<\/p>\n

Dov Seidman, founder\/CEO <\/strong>of LRN, an ethics and compliance management firm, believes companies will thrive when ethical business cultures exist. (He\u2019s also an author, attorney, and columnist).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been reported that over two-thirds of U.S. citizens believe that none, very few, or only some corporations operate in a fair and honest manner.\u00a0Pretty disheartening isn\u2019t it?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So what does it take to create and support moral leadership?\u00a0 Seidman suggests to first start by cultivating trust, values, and passion.\u00a0 (TRUST, once again surfaces as a key critical component). He also provides 4 guiding principles:<\/p>\n

Moral Leaders Are Driven By Purpose<\/strong><\/p>\n

They focus on progress, not just on results and the bottom line. Journeys force us to learn, adapt, experiment, and embrace and learn from mistakes.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Moral Leaders Inspire and Elevate Others<\/strong><\/p>\n

They ask people to be loyal not to them, but rather to the overall purpose and mission of the organization.<\/em><\/p>\n

Moral Leaders Are Animated by Both Courage and Patience<\/strong><\/p>\n

It takes courage to speak out for a principle or larger truth, especially when that leader is in an uncomfortable or vulnerable territory. Think of patience as a way of extending trust to others by allowing them the time to be more thorough, rigorous and creative.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Moral Leaders Keep Building Muscle<\/strong><\/p>\n

Authentic leaders don\u2019t stop learning and growing just because they\u2019ve accumulated formal authority. They continue to build moral muscle by wrestling with questions of right and wrong, fairness and justice, what serves others and what doesn\u2019t.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Additionally, Seidman<\/strong> states that moral leaders \u201cpause and continually ask if what they\u2019re doing\u2014or what their company or organization is doing\u2014is compatible with their purpose and mission\u201d.<\/p>\n

How would you answer that question?<\/p>\n

Seidman says: When you demonstrate moral authority, people follow you not because they have to, but because they want to.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
